Lady Gaga is an American singer, songwriter, and actress who rose to global fame with her 2008 debut album The Fame. Known for her theatrical stage presence, avant-garde fashion, and genre-blending sound, she has become one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Across seven studio albums she has continuously reinvented her sonic identity — from electropop and dance music to hard rock, experimental art pop, and cinematic soundscapes — while maintaining creative ownership as a co-writer on virtually everything she records.
Lady Gaga co-writes virtually everything she records — her songwriting credits span her entire pop discography going back to The Fame. She frequently collaborates with RedOne, Fernando Garibay, and others as co-writers, but always maintains a lyricist and composer credit on her own material. The one major exception is Cheek to Cheek, a jazz standards album with Tony Bennett where the songwriting credit goes to composers from prior decades.
